Spot the repeated phrases and refrains that give a passage its shape.

How to use it

  1. Open Scripture Study, then Analyze, then Structure.
  2. Type a chapter or passage, like Psalms 136 or Alma 36.
  3. Press Analyze structure. The repeated phrases are listed with how many times each appears.
  4. Read the passage below, with the repeated phrases marked in the text.
  5. Tap a phrase to see only the verses it is in, and whole passage to go back.

Good to know

  • A phrase marked inclusio opens and closes the passage.
  • Everyday King James wording like "unto you" is left out, so what you see is what this passage really repeats.
  • A chapter or two at a time works best.
